A man has been jailed after he fatally struck a 28-year-old down with his car in Harpurhey.

At Manchester Crown Square Court today, Thursday 8 February 2018, Kayden Wallbank (19/10/1995) of no fixed abode, has been sentenced to 7 years in prison after pleading guilty to a catalogue of driving offences.

“Wallbank is a weak and cowardly individual who struck Callum down at speed, fleeing the scene with no thought for the man he’d fatally wounded.

“Instead, he hid from police, in a futile attempt to avoid justice for his abhorrent behaviour and has still failed to show any remorse.

“Wallbank has proved himself to be a self-pitying individual who is afraid of incarceration but today’s result shows our absolute commitment to ensuring those who drive recklessly are always brought to justice.”
